The “clear distinction” between him and Al Franken is that Franken apologized for sexual misconduct allegations and has tried to atone for what he did–and Donald didn’t.

So I guess if Al Franken would have bragged about groping his accuser, then publically attacked her, then threatened to sue her, then encouraged his followers to harass her, and finally, claimed it never happened—he would have met the new standard of conduct set by this White House.

Every day Trump’s in office, he reminds us of how much he’s degraded the presidency from when Obama served. This is yet just another reminder of how far we’ve fallen.
